Description

An exciting opportunity to acquire a versatile commercial property benefiting from residential planning situated in the sought-after area of Common Platt, Swindon. The site offers a unique blend of commercial, residential, and future development potential, making it ideal for owner-occupiers, investors, or developers.

The existing property comprises two ground-floor offices, together with a double garage/storage facility, providing flexible workspace and storage accommodation suitable for a range of business uses. The first floor provides a further office area, which benefits from an existing C3 residential use class, offering the potential for conversion back into a self-contained apartment (subject to the necessary consents).

The site extends to approximately 0.79 acres and benefits from planning in principle for up to four residential units, creating an excellent opportunity for future redevelopment or intensification of the site.

The property lends itself to a variety of potential uses, including a mixed-use scheme (subject to planning) combining commercial workspace, a business yard, and residential accommodation. It would particularly suit an owner-operator seeking a live/work environment, a commercial occupier requiring secure yard and office facilities, or a developer looking to unlock the site's longer-term potential.

Located in Common Platt, Swindon, the site enjoys a semi-rural setting while remaining within convenient reach of Swindon?s wider commercial and transport networks.

All viewings are to be by appointment only with Chris Pomphrey or Ellis Smith.
